Reviews for Bashful Banana Bakery & Cafe in Ocean City, NJ
Went twice in one day, it's so nice to have gluten free and vegan options. First visit was lunchtime-ish, ordered take out, a... couple smoothies and a banana whip. Everything was great. Went back around dinner time and got the last outdoor seat. Lots ofentree options, food tasted great! Prices are reasonable however the entree serving sizes are small. Unfortunately the staff wasswamped so our service was not great; long wait just for silverware, entree missing condiments etc. I'll definitely stop inagain, maybe just try to avoid peak hours.

Once again, an Ocean City staple gets plenty of nostalgia points from me. I remember when this place opened a couple decades ago... and entirely forgot that it existed until this past Labor Day weekend when my girlfriend and I were walking by. I can remembermy mom getting muffins here (which she always raved about) and I needed to stop in. I was pleased to see that it is exactly thesame inside as I remembered, which means that it could probably use a refresh. They appear to be using the same banana creamersthat they were 20 years ago and the girls behind the counter were working hard to churn out orders. The kitchen is in the backand out of sight. We got one of their proprietary "duffins" - a donut/muffin hybrid that really seemed to be a muffin in theshape of a donut. I *guess* that counts. We got a blueberry one, which was good but would have been better hot. We also got abanana whip (the standard here) with chocolate chips. It was really good. We got a kiddie size which looked bigger than asmall! It's a shame that this place is not on the main part of the boardwalk. You really have to know what you are looking forto find it. However, they offer something completely unique to the sweet treat scene here. If you want something that's not icecream or water ice, check this place out! Read more

First time here this morning and had such a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, and there are so many different... options on the menu, I?d be surprised if you couldn?t find something you liked. Nice amount of outdoor seating too. Ourwaitress, Lindsey, was so courteous and kind. I?ll definitely be back here to try some of their other foods! Read more
Had one of their waffle bowls with whipped topping and it was amazing. The waffle was among the best I've ever had- and I eat a... lot of breakfast foods. Their coffee is also quite good. They have several gluten free and vegan options as well for those withdietary restrictions. Read more
Great selection of healthy food and beverages including green smoothies. Friendly staff. The mural below is just across from... their front door...I liked it! Read more
We found this place while we were on vacation in Ocean City. Due to me not being able to have dairy products this place was one... of the options for food during our trip. I am so glad we found it. We ended up going back several times throughout our timethere. Highly recommend. Our waitress was amazing, informative, and the food was great. The Banana whip is AMAZING. Hands downthe best. My daughters vegetarian quesadilla was huge and she said it was delicious. The kids grilled cheese was the bestaccording to my youngest. The bagels and smoothies were also amazing. The only thing we didn't care for was the "to-go items"such as the cupcakes and muffins,they were super dry and hard. But, we will try them again next time as it might have been aone-off situation. The only thing I was kind of bummed about was I waited 10 minutes inside to he acknowledged by a staffmember when trying to buy some pastries because two of the staff members were chatting about some friend drama???? Other thanthat, we enjoyed it and will be back! Read more
Super busy Saturday morning. The food took some time, but since each whip is made to order, we were fine waiting. Everything was... delicious. Our server worked her tail off. One angry customer berated the server, manager, and actually shoulder checked me onhis way out the door. If you don?t have patience on a busy summer morning, make your own breakfast, sir. We come back everyyear, and it is always worth it. Read more
